What's This Heckler Yelling at Kathleen Sebelius?

Here's a "fun" game for your Friday afternoon: What is this anti-abortion heckler yelling at Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius at the commencement ceremony for Georgetown's Public Policy Institute? It's something about abortion being murder: Georgetown's Vox Populi blog reports he said "you're a murderer," but there's more at the end we couldn't catch.

The heckler was upset because Georgetown, a Catholic university, invited Sebelius, whose agency required religious organizations to cover contraceptives in their health plans. Unfortunately, if you figure out what he's yelling, you'll probably be disappointed by how strident it is. But Sebelius' impassivity in response is pretty charming, so the video's still worth a watch.
